Roof rails absent

Post by Pinch »

So, looking down on the caddy from above I noticed holes, screw threads for a rack or rails. Do they leak without rails on? And if so do you need blanking plugs?

They usually has some bolts in if there is no roof rack or rails. They are not all that expensive from VW.

Anyone know where to get the rails that go side to side on the roof to hold roof boxes in place cheap from?

Thanks in advance
